This should be enough to give you an indication of what this place is like. Hard drinking and hard rocking (all of the most played songs on the jukebox are by AC/DC), Strathies is not a place for the faint-hearted but equally it's not as scary as it may seem at first. Despite its rough exterior, the Southside establishment offers all the simple things you could really ask of a bar; football on TV, jukebox, cheap drink, pool table and darts board. It's actually rather welcoming in a "do what your told, and we'll leave you alone" type way. While I can't say I'll be frequenting here often, give me this sort of bar over the sterile style bars of the West End any day. Rock on, I say (although I'd probably be barred if I uttered these words in the place).

My boyfriend and I popped in for a quick drink as we walked along Pollockshaws road. As soon as we passed through the door we mutually mentally agreed it was to be an even quicker one. To be fair I'll say Strathies was not for us but it may suit those with different requirement of a local watering hole . Those who appreciate the musical genius of ACDC and prefer the band to be blasted at an ear bleeding decibel level. Those who like their clientele more than a little "rough around the edges" (and I don't just throw that phrase around. I'm from Clydebank). Those who would choose to down their Tennents in a pub with decor that can, at best, be described as "rustic" at worst "a dump." Those people would love Strathies.

Took my better half into the lounge bar and she was well impressed with the salubrious fittings. Apparently a well-known Paisely troubadour (no names!) is known to occasionally frequent this fine hostelry. Price wise, this knocks spots off any city-centre bar, and as a nod to changing tastes the coffee is spot on. Good selection of malts behind the bar, and the measures are bigger than the miserable sizes in Madchester. The pool table is brand new, though the locals are total sharks at pool and know their game. Highly recommend a visit.

It's a small pub, but I thought it was really cosy and warm and I quite liked it! It's sort of an old mans pub, but the interior is quite contemporary, with bare stone walls and big plush couches, and a well populated darts board in the corner. It's got a couple of 'rooms' almost, with two seating areas away from the bar, and its also a sports bar, with large screens showing sky sports channels. Great wee atmosphere, and good for a drink after dinner in Riva!

The club provides a place for members to have a drink with friends and perhaps a game or two of pool or darts in the games room. It also houses a good sized hall where there is often entertainment as well as the opertunity to hire this hall for functions. It is relitivly easy to get here with the proximity to the railway station they are well searved by public transport and for those choosing to take the car there is a good sized car park at the club. The staff offer a friendly welcome and there is a good atmosphere. Although there is wheelchair access you do have to ask for the gates to be opened by a member of staff as you have to enter by the games room which has an outside fenced area. There is also a disabled toilet although it is a bit tricky to get into as you have to go through a small room to get to it.

Well this is my first review…read more I attended the Lounsdale on a Thursday with a group of friends to partake in the quiz night. I didn't arrive in time for food, but 4 out of the 5 people that ate enjoyed their food. I've eaten here in the past and always enjoyed it. It's part of the "sizzling pubs" chain but I'm not familiar with any other sizzling pubs in the area. It's a busy place, there were 15 teams in the pub quiz, and plenty of patrons staying for a gab after their dinner. Nice buzz about the place without being too full to move. It's a fairly standard pub quiz, picture round, music round etc. However, the best part of it is the quizmaster who cheats like mad. Now a cheating quiz master may sound bad but it is the opposite. Even if you have a dreadful round 2 or 3 out of 7 (2 pts a questions) you generally don't get less than 10 points out of 14 points for a round. In this way the quiz actually stays very competitive until the end as even the cleverest of teams can't pull away from the pack. 4 drinks, 2 pints and two short drinks, £12.50 that makes the drinks reasonable priced in my book. Nice night, the only problem is that the quiz starts quite late 9.15 p.m. (it's meant to be 9.00 p.m. but I arrived at 9.30 p.m. and the first round hadn't concluded) so I wasn't home until after 12 on a school night.

It might also have been that the bar staff were very slow, insisting on chatting with everyone who ordered and breaking off to serve the regulars before finishing orders from people who had placed them first. Possibly the regulars cause trouble if not served quickly? Possibly they get served first because the staff like them. Who knows? I wasn't going to hang around to find out. It's a handy pub for a subcrawl and the beer is cheap but even then I think I'd give it a miss in future. If you're a big Rangers fan you might feel more at home here but I don't know anything about football at all so any appeal that might exist there is somewhat lost on me.
